Nick,
Digging into it a bit further, you could use the GROUP=groupname
parameter in analysis.cfg.
i.e.
LOG %application "%Restore failed for Server*" COLOR=red
GROUP=serveradmins
If you set a groupname on each LOG alert in analysis.cfg then you can
use that in alerts.cfg to direct the alert.
So alerts.cfg could be something like this,
GROUP=serveradmins SERVICE=msgs
MAIL user-fe9c80510608@xymon.invalid
Or
HOST=servername GROUP=appladmins SERVICE=msgs
MAIL user-391bbe01f5e4@xymon.invalid
That way alerts would only be sent to the relevant group.

Hi Neil,
Yes, I definitely need these application logs going to the application
team and not the server team. I am very surprised that this is not
able to be done as I am sure it is a common scenario?

I don't think you can directly direct different log alerts on the
same
server to different recipients but this is something I'm looking at
and
I've decided that the alert should run a script that will decide
which
alert it is and send to the appropriate recipients.
Obviously if all the log alerts from any one particular server want
to
go to the same group of people then the standard Xymon functionality
will do that.
Regards,
Neil.

Can anyone tell me how I can set up xymon so that specific
(application) logs on specific servers send e-mail alerts (to
several
recipients)? I tried searching through the archives but could not
find anything showing this. Do I have to configure (somehow) a
different service? The servers run Solaris 10. I'm new to xymon.
